DANGER• DANGER: Do not perform any service on or near the fans, motors, and drives, without first ensuring that the fans are disconnected, locked out,
and tagged out.
• WARNING: Failure to use designated lifting points can result in a dropped load causing severe injury, death, and/or property damage. Lifts must be performed by qualified riggers following BAC published Rigging Instructions and generally accepted lifting practices. The use of supplemental safety slings may also be required if the lift circumstances warrant its use, as determined by the rigging contractor.
• WARNING: Only personnel qualified to do so should undertake the installation, operation, maintenance and repair of this equipment. Proper care, procedures, and tools must be used in handling, lifting, installing, operating, maintaining, and repairing this equipment to prevent personal injury and/or property damage.
• WARNING: To prevent possible contamination of the make-up water supply, install a backflow prevention method in accordance with applicable local and national codes.
• WARNING: The top horizontal surface of the unit is not intended to be used as a walking surface or working platform. If access to the top of the unit is desired, the purchaser/end-user is cautioned to use appropriate means complying with applicable safety standards of governmental authorities.
• WARNING: All electrical, mechanical, and rotating machinery are potential hazards, particularly for those not familiar with their design, construction, and operation. Accordingly, use appropriate lockout procedures. Adequate safeguards (including the use of protective enclosures where necessary) should be taken with this equipment both to safeguard the public from injury and to prevent damage to the equipment, its associated system, and the premises.
• WARNING: Incoming power lines to the disconnect switch remain energized. Take proper electrical precautions when working near energized equipment.
• WARNING: The TrilliumSeries™ Adiabatic Product controls are set up to periodically flush and drain the water system, thereby eliminating the need for water treatment. However there may be unusual circumstances where chemicals or biological contaminants could be introduced into the recirculating water system, which could be harmful if inhaled or ingested. If there is a concern that this has happened, wear appropriate respiratory protection as a precaution, when exposed to the discharge air stream or to the mists produced by cleaning activities associated with the recirculating water system or Pre-Cooler Pads.
• CAUTION: The operation, maintenance, and repair of this equipment shall be undertaken only by personnel authorized and qualified to do so. All such personnel shall be thoroughly familiar with the equipment, the associated system and controls, and the procedures set forth in this manual. Proper care, personal protective equipment, procedures, and tools must be used in handling, lifting, installing, operating,
maintaining, and repairing this equipment to prevent personal injury and/or property damage.
• BAC units are typically installed immediately after shipment and many operate year round. However, if the unit is to be stored for a prolonged period of time either before or after installation, certain precautions should be observed.
• Do not run the unit wet with the pre-cooler pads out and the fans on (thereby getting the coils wet). Wet/dry cycling of the unit this way could shorten the coil life, and voids the warranty.
• Before an actual lift is undertaken, open the access hatch(es) and check to ensure no water, snow, ice, or debris has collected in the sump or elsewhere in the unit. Such accumulations will substantially add to the equipment’s lifting weight.
• When connecting power to the unit, do not penetrate the top of the control panel. Doing so may allow moisture to enter the panel. All cable and conduit should be supported separately from the unit. Do not penetrate the unit for supports or other connections.
• Do not use steam, high pressure water, or high pressure air to clean any component.
• Do not attempt to remove the Pre-Cooler Pads while wet to prevent excessive degradation.

1. Coils: TrilliumSeries™ Adiabatic Producs have either microchannel, or tube/fin coils. The coils are designed to be corrosion resistant, minimize refrigerant or fluid charge, allow for thermal expansion, and be easy to inspect and clean.
2. Whisper Quiet Fan(s): The fans have integrated electronically commutated motors (ECMs). These motors have embedded speed control and are highly efficient. They communicate with the EcoFlex™ Controls via Modbus.
3. Pre-Cooler Pads: when saturated with water, the pads precool the air to 1-3°F above the wet bulb temperature, thus improving the ability of the unit to reject heat on hot summer days. In conjunction with the distribution system they are designed to keep the water off the coils. When dry, the pads are removable for coil inspection or for cleaning.
4. Refrigerant/Fluid Connections: This is where customers connect to their piping systems. Some units have these connections on the opposite end from the controls.
5. Discrete Spray Connection (Not Shown): Since uptime is critical, this backup connection is available for water supply to the spray system. Should the pump or valve get damaged, or main water supply be interrupted on a hot day, a garden hose can be connected to this connection for a backup. See page 31 for more details.
6. Auto-Discrete Valve (Optional): This normally closed (NC) valve is located at the discrete spray connection location. Should the pump, make-up valve, or float switch get damaged, the valve will automatically open to supply water to the spray system.
7. Access Hatch: This door allows access to the sump, pump(s), float switch, strainer, and for general inspection. There is no general need to climb inside the unit; reaching into the sump is all that would be necessary during inspection and maintenance.
8. Pump(s): The industrial grade stainless steel pump(s) are controlled by the EcoFlex™ Controls to deliver water to the distribution system when the unit is in the Pre-Cooler Mode. The pump(s) are rated for continuous duty and can run dry for short periods without harm.
9. Pump Valve (Optional, Not Shown): This valve is a slow acting, normally open (NO) ball valve that prevents water from discharging through the pump when the Discrete Spray Connection is used. When the optional Auto-Discrete Backup Spray System mode is activated, the valve automatically closes.
10. Sump: This stainless steel basin collects the water from the gutters and the spray system, and houses the pump(s). It can be accessed through the access hatch(es).
11. Strainer(s): The strainer(s) surrounds the pump(s). It protects the spray system from collecting debris that is larger than the holes in the distribution system.
12. Float Switch (Not Shown for TSDC): The industrial grade stainless steel float switch detects the water level in the sump, ensures that water doesn’t overflow, and, in concert with the EcoFlex™ Controls, protects the pump(s) from operating dry.
13. Make-up Valve: This normally closed (NC) valve provides fresh water to the unit to replenish the water that evaporates into the entering air stream, and the water that is drained to keep the unit clean.
14. Make-up Pressure Balancing Valve (TSDC2 Only): This valve is adjusted to set the correct water flow to the pre-cooler pads. This valve is preset a the factory. See page 24 for more information.
15. Water Distribution System: Water is evenly dispersed over the full length of the pad using a PVC pipe system (TSDC) or a stainless steel gutter system (TSDC2 and TSDF2).
16. Water Collection Gutter: The unused water from the pre-cooling pads is collected in this gutter and returned to the sump to be recycled instead of dumping the water to a drain.
17. Drain Valve: This valve is a slow opening, normally open (NO) ball valve that drains water from the unit when the unit cycles into Dry Mode or during periodic cleaning cycles.
18. Outdoor Air Sensor (Not Shown): This sensor determines the outside temperature, and when comparing it to the precool set temperature helps the controller determine whether the unit should be in Dry Mode or Pre-Cooler Mode.
19. EcoFlex™ Controls: Each unit is shipped with custom controls logic that reduces energy consumption and optimizes water usage. With preset controls, the system is programmed and ready to operate upon arrival from the factory. For more information, see pages 28, 33 and 40.
20. Flow Meter(s) with Valve (TSDC2 and TSDF2 Only): This is set from the factory to control the flow of water over the Pre-Cooler Pads. See page 24 for adjustment.
21. Easy Pad Removal (Not Shown) (TSDC2 and TSDF2 Only): Steel partitions facilitate pad removal without damage while minimizing downtime. See page 36 for more information.

Layout Guidelines
TrilliumSeries™ Adiabatic Products must be located to ensure an adequate supply of fresh air to the coils. The axial fan(s) are not equipped to overcome external static pressure. When units are located adjacent to walls or in enclosures, care must be taken to ensure the discharge air is not deflected and recirculated back to the air intakes.
Each unit must be located and positioned to prevent the introduction of discharge air into the ventilation systems of the building on which the unit is located and of adjacent buildings. For detailed recommendations, see Figure 3 and Table 1.

Prolonged Outdoor Storage
TrilliumSeries™ Adiabatic Products are shipped wrapped. If the unit is going to remain in outdoor storage in excess of three months prior to installation, remove the strech-wrap and tarp and follow the storage recommendations below.
Storage Preparation• Ensure the sump is fully drained. Remove any leaves or debris that may have
accumulated in the sump and gutters.
• For extended shutdown periods after start-up, coils should be charged with nitrogen at 15 psig in the field and capped by adding a threaded connection or a welded cap. Upon start-up, the coil connections will require cutting.
• Insert desiccant bags into the EcoFlex™ Control panel to absorb moisture. Seal the control panel for storage.
• Inspect the protective finish on the unit. Clean as required.
Motor RecommendationsTrilliumSeries™ Adiabatic Product motors are designed for storage at ambient temperatures of -40ºF to 176ºF (-40ºC to 80ºC). Prolonged periods of exposure above or below these specified conditions could degrade components of the motor and cause malfunction or premature failure.
• Care must also be taken to protect the motor from flooding or from harmful chemical vapors.
• The storage area should be free from ambient vibration. Excessive vibration can cause damage.
• Keep stored motor(s) dry and protected from weather.
• Rotate the fan once per month.
Preparation After Prolonged StorageKeep in mind that start-up procedures after long periods of storage are just as important as pre-shutdown procedures. Follow the instructions in the rest of this manual after prolonged storage. Be especially thorough for cleaning and inspection prior to start-up. Also, check the battery of the EcoFlex™ Control Panel.
NOTICE: BAC units are typically
installed immediately after
shipment and many operate year
round. However, if the unit is to
be stored for a prolonged period
of time either before or after
installation, certain precautions
should be observed.

TRILLIUMSERIES™ ADIABATIC PRODUCT
Installation 3Refrigerant Connection and Fluid Connections
The Pre-Cooler Pads represents the only potential flammable component of the TrilliumSeries™ Adiabatic Product. Remove the first two Pre-Cooler Pads on each side of the unit closest to the coil connection end on each side prior to brazing or welding the refrigerant or fluid piping.
For TrilliumSeries™ Condenser units, each unit must be piped with a trapped drop leg as shown in Figure 12. To ensure the unit operates with full capacity ensure that the drop leg is tall enough so the column of liquid has a static pressure greater than the pressure drop through the coil. This will be particularly important on multi-unit installations. Typical pressure drops through microchannel coils for TSDC are 5-6 psi for HFCs and 2 psi for NH3, which correspond to ~10 foot drop leg heights, although this will vary with unit sizing and application. For TSDC HFC’s in tube/fin coils the typical pressure drop is ~ 2 psi. For TSDC CO2 coils, the pressure drop is 4-12 psi. For TSDC2 the maximum allowed pressure drops is 12 psi for water, 10 psi for CO2, 1 psi for NH3 and 3 psi for HFCs. Contact BAC for special selections that may fall outside of these parameters.
NOTICE:1. Weld/braze the pipes with care,
noting that the coil itself may be aluminum. Protect the PVC piping and any exposed wiring from weld splatter.
2. Vacuum and clean all copper dust.
3. When piping the refrigerant connections, take care not to block the door opening of the access hatch or control panel.
4. For units equipped with threaded connections, be sure not to apply all torque directly to the header as this may cause damage and leaks.
5. Connections for fluid coolers are available in red brass MPT, flanged, or copper sweat. Always follow best practices when connecting refrigerant or fluid connections.

Figure 13a. Parallel Piping with Common Liquid Header above Receiver Level Alternative 1
Refrigerant Piping for Multiple UnitsSee Figures 13a and 13b for the refrigerant piping connections for multiple units:
• All valves and piping shown to be field provided and installed if necessary.
• These piping diagrams show the arrangement of multiple TrilliumSeries™ Adiabatic Condensers. Additional piping requirements may be necessary for your system such as backflow valves or equalizing lines.
• Weld/braze the pipes with care to prevent damage to the coil and unit.
• When piping the refrigerant connections, take care not to block the door opening of the access hatch or control panel. See Figure 14.
• It is desirable to trap the liquid header as shown in Figure 13a. Trapping the header will insure a stable operating condition for the condensers. If the liquid header is not trapped, there will be times, particularly at initial start-up, where there will be erratic condenser operation until all liquid leg seals are stabilized. Piping must be sized for 100 fpm drain velocities, and should be sloped a minimum of 1/4” per foot toward the receiver.
• Figure 13b indicates an alternative method of trapping the main liquid header using a vertical trap. The volume of the vertical trap between the bottom inlet connection and the top outlet connection must be equal to the combined volume of the liquid in all of the drop legs. The top of the vertical trap must be connected to the equalizing line to prevent a siphoning effect from the liquid header to the receiver. There is no need to trap the individual drip legs when a vertical trap is used. The drop legs and the common liquid header should be sized for a maximum liquid velocity of 100 fpm.

Piping Guidelines
When piping the unit, route the water pipes down or to the side so that there is a clear landing area in front of the unit for accessing the control panel and access hatch(es) in compliance with NEC regulations.
Water Connection
Water PipingTrilliumSeries™ Adiabatic Products require a water supply between 25 and 60 psi in a ¾” pipe for the TSDC and in a 1” pipe for the TSDC2 and TSDF2 at the unit’s inlet. If your building’s pressure is too high, it is recommended to use a pressure reducing valve.
If multiple TrilliumSeries™ Adiabatic Products are being installed, use Table 3 to determine the proper size of the water line that should be run to the units. This is critical for proper operation of the unit. Failure to meet these requirements will result in poor performance, lower capacity, and possible damage to the pump.

• For units with the water monitoring option, a water regulator will be provided with the unit which will be shipped loose inside the basin. The regulator must be installed before the make up valve and must be sized according to Figure 16 on page 16. If multiple units are ordered one water regulator should be installed per unit.
• If the optional Auto-Discrete Backup Spray System is ordered, the water supply to the unit can be split to provide water to both the make-up valve and auto-discrete valve. -
• Customers in climates that reach below freezing temperatures should refer to page 30 for winter operation.
• On page 15, Figures 15a and 14b show the suggested water piping for one or multiple units. These figures show an optional hose faucet connection which can be used to connect a garden hose for cleaning the unit or for the discrete spray back up. They also show a 3-way valve which allows the water piping to be remotely drained when temperatures are below freezing. This valve is field provided, installed, and controlled.
• Backflow prevention should be installed on TrilliumSeries™ Adiabatic Products per local and national codes.

Electrical Power QualityThis unit requires clean electrical power to operate properly. Voltage and frequency should be within 10% of the designed voltage for the unit. Failure to provide this power may damage the unit.
The EC fan motors contain built-in protection circuits that will shut down the fan if there is a power quality issue. If the fans go into protection mode, the unit must be shut down and restarted to return to normal operation.
Power ConnectionsTrilliumSeries™ Adiabatic Products require a 3 phase 60Hz power source (50Hz also available). The voltages available are 200V, 230V, and 460V (380V and 415V also available). Please ensure that the correct voltage is supplied to the unit. If unsure, check your unit’s submittal to verify that the provided power matches your unit. The TSDC includes a power wire port on the upper left-hand side. The TSDC2 and TSDF2 includes a power wire port on the bottom right-hand side. In both instances, remove the NEMA plug. Make sure to use the proper sealing methods to comply with NEMA standards. This will maintain the panel’s NEMA 4 rating and prevent water ingression to the unit.
Controls ConnectionsThe controls wiring should be provided in a separate conduit from any power wiring. BAC recommends penetrating the control panel from the bottom or side panel observing standards. It is also recommended to use of shielded wire to avoid interference.
BAC offers the following options to control the TrilliumSeries™ Adiabatic Product. Check the submittal package to determine how the unit was setup and shipped:
• Control signal (0-10VDC, 10-0VDC or 4-20mA): The 0-10VDC signal commands the fans off at 0V and full speed at 10V. The 10-0VDC signal commands the fans off at 10V and full speed at 0V. The voltage signals should be wired to terminals – V (negative) and 10V (positive). The 4-20mA signal commands the fans off at 4mA and full speed at 20mA. The 4-20mA should be wired to terminals 10V (negative) and mA (positive).
• Communications via ModBus or BACnet: BAC offers both protocols over RS485 and BACnet over IP. For RS485 connection, BAC recommends the use of twisted shielded twisted paired wire with a ground. The communications card will be located on the bottom of the controller. The BAC modbus and BACnet connections do not have any device restrictions or proprietary protocols. However, you should contact your building management system provider or controls integrator to verify your system will work with the TrilliumSeries™ Adiabatic Product communications protocols. Please see Table 5 on page 16 for specific communication points map.
• Head Pressure Control: For units with this option, BAC has already preset the controller to operate with the specified refrigerant at the factory. A pressure sensor will be furnished with the unit. This sensor must be installed in the piping either on the supply side or discharge side of the coil using a Schrader 7/16” 20 UNF valve (provided by others). The sensor must be wired to terminals 48 (positive) and 49 (negative). To program the temperature set point into the controller, scroll down on the screen until the refrigerant temp set point is shown, press enter and using the up/down arrows select the desired temperature and press enter. Please note, there is only a single temperature set point in the TrilliumSeries™ Adiabatic Condenser controller. If you desire to control the unit based on pressure, the pressure value will need to be converted to temperature for that specific refrigerant.
• Leaving Fluid Temperature Control: For fluid cooler units, the leaving fluid temperature is monitored with a sensor installed in the leaving water piping. The sensor must be wired to terminals as shown in wiring diagrams included with submittal package.
NOTICE: When connecting power
to the unit, do not penetrate the
top of the control panel. Doing so
may allow moisture to enter the
panel. All cable and conduit should
be supported separately from the
unit. Do not penetrate the unit for
supports or other connections.
NOTE: EcoFlex™ Controls come
with preset date and time from
the factory and do not need
modification during initial start-up.
NOTE: Units purchased after
November 2015 are fully integrated
with Emerson CPC Controller.
NOTE: The minimum fan speed is
5%. Any signal sent below 5% (i.e.
9.95V or 0.05V) will be ignored and
the fans will turn off.

Controls Setup for Microchannel Coils (TSDC Only)
The TrilliumSeries™ Adiabatic Condenser is the most efficient product in its class and as such it has very unique characteristics that need to be taken into account when integrated into a traditional refrigeration system. It is capable of maintaining a steady drop leg pressure in the system year long without the need of floating set points or periodically adjusting flood valves to control capacity on colder days. It is important to monitor the condenser to avoid rapid cycling of the fans, more specifically when the ambient temperatures drop below freezing.
During the colder season the condenser becomes more efficient and the hot gas entering the coils condenses much faster. During these conditions the drop leg pressure and temperature may fluctuate rapidly if the control system is not properly tuned. This rapid fluctuation will produce a significant amount of cycling of the condenser’s fan motors.
This rapid cycling will not only increase the cost of operating the unit but also cause severe stress on all mechanical components which could lead to costly repairs. As with other refrigeration equipment, care should be taken in the setup of the control system to ensure the fan motor is started from rest no more than 6 times per hour. Excess cycling on cold days can thermally shock the microchannel and can cause premature deterioration, leading to failure. Coil failure due to excessive system cycling is not covered under warranty. This excess cycling will also manifest wear on other parts of the refrigeration system such as compressors and valves.
To avoid excess cycling, ensure the control system is properly tuned for a condenser with low refrigerant volume. Typical PID (Proportional Integral Derivative) control settings may be tuned by default for larger volume condensers and may respond erratically when placed in service with a microchannel condenser without tuning. Check with your controls vendor for custom microchannel settings. In some cases, Proportional only (sometimes called ‘Linear’) control, based on the dropleg temperature or pressure, is a stopgap solution until proper Integral & Derivative settings can be determined. Alternatively, installing the TrilliumSeries™ Adiabatic Condenser with the ‘Head Pressure Control’ option eliminates fan fluctuations by taking over fan control from the refrigeration system and ensures steady year-round operation and protection against erratic refrigeration system control. For more information, see pages 15, 23, and 32.

• If necessary, clean the Pre-Cooler Pads.
• After installation, remove any steel shavings from inside the unit. This will prevent shavings from rusting onto the surface of the thermosetting hybrid polymer, which may affect the coating’s integrity over extended time.
Start-Up• Verify the correct voltage to the control panel with a meter.
• Before power has been provided to the unit, proceed to flip all the breakers to the ON position inside the control panel.
• Close the control panel and ensure that both locks have been fully engaged by rotating 90 degrees on each bolt.
• Remove any materials from the sump.
• Turn on breaker or other power supply that supplies power to the unit.
• Close the pump access hatch firmly.
• Flip the main disconnect switch to the ON position.
• The TrilliumSeries™ Adiabatic Product will start momentarily.
• The EcoFlex™ Controls are pre-set from the factory. No setup is required for the standard unit. The only setup required is for the optional Water Monitoring (see below). More information on the EcoFlex™ Controls connections can be found on page 16.
• The following items can be adjusted at the time of start-up, if desired. However, the unit ships from the factory preset with defaults.

Figure 21. Dry Mode Operation
Modes of Operation
TrilliumSeries™ Adiabatic Products will operate in two basic modes: Dry Mode and Pre-Cooler Mode. In Dry Mode, the water pump will be off and the unit will operate as an air-cooled condenser or fluid cooler. During Pre-Cooler Mode, the unit will use a pump to deliver water over the Pre-Cooler Pads, making the unit operate as an adiabatic condenser or fluid cooler.
Dry ModeWhen the ambient air is below the set point, the unit runs as a dry cooler to save water and energy. The ambient air condenses the refrigerant or cools the process fluid in the coils which is then returned to the system.
Pre-Cooler ModeWhen the unit is in Pre-Cooler Mode to manage the water: maximizing Pre-Cooler Pad wetting in Pre-Cooler mode and the ambient air reaches a pre-set temperature, water is evenly sprayed over the highly efficient Pre-Cooler Pads. The air is humidified as it passes through the media, cooling down to 2-3ºF above the wet-bulb temperature. Such substantial depression of the dry bulb temperature results in a major increase in dry cooling capacity.
The cooler air passes over the coil and condenses the refrigerant or cools the process fluid in the coil which is then returned to the system. In the sump there is an industrial-duty pump that supplies the water. Part of the distributed water is evaporated while the excess water assists in rinsing the pads. The EcoFlex Controls determine when the water is purged from the sump.

Cleansing CirculationTrilliumSeries™ Adiabatic Products utilizes a patented process in Pre-Cooler Mode to manage the water: maximizing Pre-Cooler Pad wetting while minimizing water consumption and maintaining hygiene. This process is called Cleansing Circulation.
In this process, water enters the unit and is circulated throughout, never remaining still. To keep the water clean, the drain valve opens every few hours (field adjustable, based on water quality) for a couple of minutes to drain the water in the sump. The make-up valve then opens to allow fresh water to enter the unit. If the Water Monitoring package is ordered, this periodic draining schedule will be replaced with a schedule based on water conductivity (see page 23).
Figure 23. Cleansing Circulation
Periodic Drain CycleThe few minute drain cycle described above as part of the Cleansing Circulation process is called the Periodic Drain Cycle which occurs every two hours.
Daily Drain CycleOnce a day, the unit will drain the sump and flush it with fresh water for two minutes (adjustable). The pump will turn off and the basin will remain empty.
Pump and Float Control• When the unit is in Pre-Cooler Mode, the pump will be in operation. The pump works
in concert with the float switch, make-up valve, and dump valve to ensure reliable operation and that a proper water level is maintained for the long life of the pump.
• When the outside air temperature reaches setpoint, the make-up water valve (NC) and the drain valve (NO) will be energized, and water will begin to fill the basin.
• When the basin is full, the float switch makes and sends a signal to the The EcoFlex™ Controls. After a brief delay, the pump will energize.
• After another brief delay, the make-up valve is de-energized.
• As water evaporates, the water level in the sump will drop due to evaporation. When it drops below the minimum level, the float switch will trigger the EcoFlex™ Controls to open the make-up valve until the water level reaches normal.
• If the make-up valve is open for a certain time and the float switch is not made, the pump will be de-energized to protect the pump from running dry.

• If the pump receives a signal to operate and after repeated attempts cannot turn on due to the float switch not sensing adequate water, the EcoFlex™ Controls will indicate a fault (optional alarm). See the Troubleshooting Guide on page 44 for suggestions on how to address this.
EcoFlex™ ControlsBAC’s exclusive EcoFlex™ Controls allow for the TrilliumSeries™ Adiabatic Product to operate in the mode of operation specific for your job conditions without you having to think about it. Each unit is shipped from the factory with your specific climate conditions and preferences in mind.
Modes of Operation OptimizationThere are three different ways to optimize unit operation. The unit’s mode is located at the default controls menu. Once the menu is shown, press enter and select the desired mode of operation.
1. Standard Logic (Default): The controller will start the Pre-Cooler Mode at a preset outside air temperature to increase the unit’s capacity and efficiency. This is the default mode.
2. Water Saver Logic: The controller will optimize the unit’s efficiency and only use water when the conditions require the extra cooling capacity. Pre-Cooler Mode will be initiated only when the outside air temperature is above the switch point and the fans are running at 90% or above for over 60 seconds. This mode will recheck conditions every two hours.
3. Energy Saver Logic: The controller will optimize its sequence so that the least amount of energy is consumed to meet the present load of the unit. If the outside air temperature is 10°F (5.6°C) below the switch point and the fan speed is above 35%, Pre-Cooler Mode will be initiated.
There are also additional settings and options to optimize operation:

Modes of Operation Optimization
Fan ControlEvery fan will run at the same speed at all times. The fans are connected to each other via ModBus RS485 and controlled using one of these three methods. Water Saver Logic and Energy Saver Logic will need to be pre-ordered as extra devices and configuration are added at the factory:
4. Customer provided Analog signal (0-10V, 10-0V and 4-20mA): Customers provide an Analog Input signal to the controller from their rack controller or Energy Management System. An equivalent signal is re- broadcasted to the fans via ModBus.
5. Pressure sensor (Head Pressure Control), Optional: A pressure sensor supplies an Analog Input (4-20mA) to the controller to indicate head pressure. The controller modulates the fan speed using a PID loop comparing the head pressure to the setpoint to control the fan speed. The loop is tuned in such a way that the fans operate smoothly to preserve the fan’s motor life and energy. The fans’ speed signal is sent to the fans via ModBus. If the pressure sensor fails, the controller sends an alarm to the interface screen and via ModBus to the customer; as well as sending a signal to the fans to run at 80% via ModBus.
6. Customer provided communications: The unit is connected to the customer’s BAS system via ModBus or BACnet. The speed signal is a ModBus or BACnet virtual point that the controller sends to all fans to control speed. A full list of all points can be found on page 16.
Pre-Cooler Mode Activation During Dry Mode, the drain valve remains open while the make-up valve remains closed. When the unit gets the signal to enter Pre-Cooler Mode, the following sequence occurs:
• The drain valve closes.
• The make-up valve opens to fill the sump, and remains on.
• When the sump is full and the float switch makes the pump turns on.
• The pump drains the sump as it fills the spray system and wets the Pre-Cooler Pads.
• If the incoming water pressure is low, the pump may turn off as the sump drains faster with the pump in operation than the make-up valve can replenish the water. The pump is rated to run dry for short periods of time without harm.
• The system will reach equilibrium when the spray system is filled, the Pre-Cooler Pads are saturated, and the sump is filled. The unit will then follow the ‘Pump and Float Control’ described on page 27.
1. Customer provided Analog signal (0-10V, 10-0V and 4-20mA): Customers provide an Analog Input signal to the controller from their rack controller or Energy Management System. An equivalent signal is re- broadcasted to the fans via ModBus.
2. Head Pressure Control Package, Optional: A pressure sensor supplies an Analog Input (4-20mA) to the controller to indicate head pressure. The controller modulates the fan speed using a PID loop comparing the head pressure to the setpoint to control the fan speed. The loop is tuned in such a way that the fans operate smoothly to preserve the fan’s motor life and energy. The fans’ speed signal is sent to the fans via ModBus. If the pressure sensor fails, the controller sends an alarm to the interface screen and via ModBus to the customer as well as sending a signal to the fans to run at 80%.
3. Customer provided communications: The unit is connected to the customer’s BAS system via ModBus or BACnet. The speed signal is a ModBus or BACnet virtual point that the controller sends to all fans to control speed. A full list of all points can be found on page 18.
4. Leaving Fluid Temperature Control (TSDF2 Only): A temperature sensor supplies an Analog Input (NTC) to the controller to indicate leaving fluid temperature. The controller modulates the fan speed using a PID loop comparing the fluid temperature to the setpoint to control the fan speed. The loop is tuned in such a way that the fans operate smoothly to preserve the fan’s motor life and energy. The fans’ speed signal is sent to the fans via ModBus. If the temperature sensor fails, the controller sends an alarm to the interface screen and via ModBus to the customer; as well as sending a signal to the fans to run at 80%.
NOTE: For winter operation, the
hose faucet can be used as
vent. Refer to Page 12 for more

Self-Clean Cycle The TrilliumSeries™ Adiabatic Product Self-Clean Cycle was developed to help maintain maximum operational performance of the unit by reducing the amount of accumulation of debris on the coils and the Pre-Cooler Pads. The Self-Clean Cycle is not intended to replace regular maintenance. Please follow the regular maintenance schedule as indicated in this manual to ensure proper operation.
Special ConsiderationsThe unit capacity will be affected during the Self-Clean Cycle. The amount of air passing through the coils will be lower than in normal operation, and BAC recommends enabling this feature during low load periods of the day. The unit comes preset to operate the Self-Clean Cycle at 5:45 am for three minutes. If you would like to set a different time or duration, refer to page 41. Also note, the Self-Clean Cycle is automatically disabled below 40°F (4°C).
OperationThe Self-Clean Cycle allows the fans to rotate backwards for a set amount of time. By pushing the air in the opposite direction of normal operation, most debris accumulated on the outer areas of the coils and pads get “pushed” out minimizing accumulation. This feature is active once a day, every day. Refer to page 41 for additional information.
Winter Operation
When the unit is in Dry Mode, the unit completely drains with no standing water. During winter operation, the EcoFlex™ Controls automatically disables Pre-Cooler Mode when the ambient temperature is below 40°F (4.4°C). Turn off the water to the unit and drain all exposed external piping, including pump piping, when below freezing temperatures are expected.
• Customers in climates that reach below freezing temperatures should take necessary precaution to protect the water pipes from freezing. This may include installing a valve to prevent standing water in the pipes (provided by others). Heat trace all exposed make-up water lines if the water cannot be shutoff and/or external piping cannot be drained.
Figure 24. Self-Clean Cycle
Coil Freeze Protection (TSDF2 Only)
For protection against coil freeze-up, recommended coil fluid solutions are an industrial grade inhibited ethylene glycol or propylene glycol solution. When the use of glycol is not practical, the system must be designed to meet the minimum temperature requirements.

Minimum Operation When a glycol solution is not utilized, operate the system to meet the following conditions.• Maintain the minimum recommended flow through the unit coils at all times.• Maintain a minimum heat load on the circulating fluid so that the temperature of the fluid leaving the coil is not less than 50°F (10°C). To maintain the leaving fluid temperature at 50°F (10°C) when the process load is extremely light or shut off, apply an auxiliary heat load to the circulating fluid and adjust the flow to ensure that fluid leaving the coil maintains the minimum required temperature.
Emergency Coil DrainDo not drain the coils as a normal method of freeze protection. Frequent draining promotes corrosion inside the coil tubes. However, draining is acceptable as an emergency method of freeze protection if the coils are not protected by a glycol solution. If the coils are not protected, automatic drain valves and vacuum breakers are recommended to drain the coils if flow stops or the fluid temperature drops below 50°F (10°C) when the ambient temperature is below freezing. Further protection against coil freeze-up is possible with the installation of an alarm to alert personnel when the temperature of the fluid leaving the coils falls below 50°F (10°C). Contact your local BAC Representative for guidelines on the installation of an emergency coil drain system.

Auto-Discrete Backup Spray System
The Auto-Discrete Backup Spray System provides a backup water system for adiabatic cooling in case of component failure. The system senses if the pump, make-up valve, or float switch fails, and if so, disables the pump and triggers a backup supply of water to spray over the Pre-Cooler Pads. The system also sends an alarm signal. The system has an automatic reset feature, whereby it periodically checks the components to identify if the fault has cleared. If it has cleared, it returns the unit to normal operation, or the system can be manually reset.

Pre-Cooler Pad Maintenance
The Pre-Cooler Pads, which act as air filters and as such protect the coil from fouling, can catch airborne debris. An inspection is recommended monthly and should focus on:
• Signs of excessive fouling and scaling of the Pre-Cooler Pads.
• Full and even wetting of the face area (when in Pre-Cooler Mode).
• To keep the Pre-Cooler Pads at their top condition, enable the Self-Clean Cycle for the daily cleaning operation. See page 30 for further details.
Scaling and FoulingIf excessive dust, debris, scale, etc. has accumulated on the Pre-Cooler Pads, it is recommended to wash the Pre-Cooler Pads by removing them from the unit and rinsing them using a standard garden hose at a downward angle. Continue rinsing until water flows freely to the other side. Never use a brush or a high-pressure hose for cleaning off the Pre-Cooler Pads.
Scale may deposit when the Pre-Cooler Pads dries at the end of each adiabatic cycle. The rate of scaling will depend on:
• The number of adiabatic starts and stops.
• The water quality.
– To reduce the amount of scaling on the Pre-Cooler pads due to poor water quality, throttle the bleed line valve open at the pump discharge.
• Poor air quality and debris can cause an accelerated rate of scaling.
• See the Troubleshooting Guide on page 44 for additional ideas on how to address scaling.
Pre-Cooler Pad Removal Removal of the pre-cooler pads has been designed as a tool-free operation for quick access to the interior of the unit for inspection of the coils and sump area. To remove the pads:
• Remove the knobs or latches located along the length of the water distribution system covers.
• Lift the hinged spray system covers. This will allow the pre-cooler pads to be removed.
• For TSDC2 or TSDF2 units equipped with the EasyPad™ Removal option, locate the pad installed between the metal baffles. This pad should be removed first to allow space for removal of subsequent pads. The baffles can also be easily lifted out of place prior to removal of other pads.
NOTICE: Do not attempt to remove
the Pre-Cooler Pads while wet to
prevent excessive degradation.
NOTICE: For the TSDC, one of the
Pre-Cooler Pads is smaller than
the others and must be returned to
its designated location. Follow the
yellow label of the unit to identify
the location.

Water Distribution System Maintenance
TSDC OnlyTo inspect the water distribution system quarterly, unlatch the quick release clasps and lift spray branch covers. Water is distributed through a corrosion resistant polyvinyl chloride (PVC) spray distribution system.
The inspection procedure is as follows:
• Make sure the unit is operating in Pre-Cooler Mode.
• Check to see if the distribution is spraying consistently.
• Clean any clogged holes. If additional cleaning is necessary, both ends of the distribution header can be removed by carefully unscrewing the ends
• Open the access hatch and verify there are no leaks in the water distribution system.
TSDC2 ans TSDF2 OnlyTo inspect the water distribution system quarterly, unscrew the knobs and lift the hinged cover. Water is distributed through a Type 304 stainless steel gutter distribution system. The inspection procedure is as follows:
• Make sure the unit is operating in Pre-Cooler Mode.
• Check to see if the distribution is spraying consistently.
• Clean any clogged holes. If additional cleaning is necessary, use a clean piece of cloth to remove any dirt or debris from the gutter.
NOTICE: Do not use steam, high
pressure water, or high pressure air
to clean any component.

NOTE: If the unit is operating in
dry mode, force the unit into the
correct mode by placing a hand
over the temperature sensor at
the bottom of the control panel or
temporarily lower the switchpoint
in the controller until the make-up
valve opens.
• Reinstall the pads in reverse order:
– TSDC: Note that one of the Pre-Cooler Pads is smaller than the others and must be returned to the designated location. Ensure the smaller pad is installed per the location indicated on the yellow label.
– TSDC2 and TSDF2: Note that the blue-colored side of the pad faces outward and that all Pre-Cooler Pads are the same size.

Strainer and Pump Maintenance
The strainer at the pump is sized to keep debris out of the water distribution system, however if cleaning is necessary, both the pump and strainer can be cleaned during adiabatic operation. However, before performing any maintenance on the pumps beyond cleaning, cut the power to the pumps in the electrical panel first. Adiabatic operation can be controlled through the controller’s maintenance menu.
The procedure is as follows:
• Open the access hatch.
• Lift the pump out of the strainer and remove it through the access hatch.
• Remove the strainer in the sump in order to clean it outside of the unit.
• Reinstall in the reverse order.
Figure 33. Remove Access Hatch (TSDC2 Shown)
Sump and Water Collection Gutters Maintenance
When performing the quarterly maintenance, the sump and water collection gutters should be inspected and cleaned as sediment can collect during typical operation. Water is collected in the Type 304 Stainless Steel sump and water collection gutters.
The procedure is as follows:
• Remove any trash or debris that my have accumulated in the sump, strainer, or water collection gutters.
• Using a standard garden hose, flush the sump area and water collection gutters with fresh water.
• When flushing the sump, remove the strainer(s) and pump(s).
• Be sure to clean the basin strainer(s) and strainer on the outside of the pump(s).
• Remove the Pre-Cooler Pads to inspect the water collection gutters.
• TSDC2 and TSDF2 Only: If necessary, the Pre-Cooler Pad supports located in the water collection gutters can be removed by lifting the pieces out of the gutters. Note the orientation of the arrows toward the sump for re-installation of the supports. See Figure 35 for more detail.

Fan and Motor Maintenance
TrilliumSeries™ Adiabatic Producs use axial fan(s) with variable speed, electronically commutated motors and as such require little maintenance. As the fan are provided with sealed bearings, lubrication is not required. With the fan(s) running, check for any unusual noises or vibrations.
Coil Maintenance
Coil types will vary depending on the model and design. Proper coil maintenance should be followed regardless of coil type.
• To keep the coils in optimum condition, ensure that the Self-Clean Cycle is enabled. See pages 30 and 41 for more details.
• To inspect the coil, the Pre-Cooler Pads must be removed and the unit must be operating in dry mode. It is recommended to perform coil maintenance when the pads are dry as they are easier to remove than when they are wet. The coil should be inspected quarterly.
• Inspect the coil surface. Any corrosion, damage, or obstructions must be corrected.
• Do not use sharp or pointed objects, including screwdrivers and similar, near the coil or to realign microchannel fins. Also, do not use harsh chemicals or extreme water pressure.
• To manually clean the coils, use a standard garden hose. Never use a brush or pressure washer. First, rinse the outside surface dust and dirt into the water collection gutters and the sump. Continue to rinse until the water easily flows to the inside of the unit and into the sump.

• Additional cleaning steps that can be used to dislodge clogged coils include high pressure air, vacuum/Shop-Vac®, or a mild detergent such as Nu Calgon’s Cal-Green MX coil cleaner (use per manufacturing instructions).
• The sump and water collection gutters should be cleaned immediately after cleaning the coil to avoid clogging the pump and drain valves.
• Coated coils: Inspect coil coating. To touch up blemished areas, use a Red Epoxy Repair Kit.
• Return the Pre-Cooler Pads to the original locations. See Pre-Cooler Pad Maintenance on page 36.
Water Treatment
The sump, water distribution system, and gutters are automatically drained every 24 hours, which reduces the risk of microbiological contamination. Therefore, TrilliumSeries™ Adiabatic Products may not require water treatment. Check your local codes for treatment requirements.
The drained water may be suitable for non-potable use such as irrigation. Refer to local codes and regulations to determine allowable uses.
In applications where hard water is supplied to the unit, a good quality water softener may extend the lift of the Pre-Cooler Pads.
The Pre-Cooler Pads have been treated with an algaecide to minimize the potential for algae growth. In cases where excessive fouling is observed and is suspected to be interfering with the airflow, the Pre-Cooler Pads should be cleaned and/or changed more frequently.
To further optimize water use and lengthen pad life, consider ordering the Water Monitoring Package from your local BAC Representative or enabling the Water Saver Logic.

Forced Overnight Dry ModeIn most climates, the nightly temperature dips below the precool setpoint which causes an automatic ‘dry cycle’ each day for a period of time. This increases the life of the Pre-Cooler Pads. However, there are some climates where the nightly temperature stays above the setpoint. To extend the life of the pads, the user can initiate a forced ‘dry cycle’ by enabling the Forced Overnight Dry Mode in the EcoFlex™ Controls.
To enable the Forced Overnight Dry Mode in the EcoFlex™ Controls, set the Drain Duration to a period of at least 240 minutes (4 hours) and ensure the Make-up Duration is less than 10 minutes. Lastly, set the Daily Drain time to a night-time hour. Refer to the EcoFlex™ Controls Appendix for details on menu navigation.

Communications Fault
Ensure the communications cable is connected to the controller on port J8.
Ensure the communications cable is not cut or damaged.
Ensure the communications cable is properly connected at the fan's motors.
Circuit Breaker Tripped Re-set the circuit breaker.
No Water Sprayor Pump Does Not Runor Pre-Cooler Mode Doesn’t Work
Incorrect Set PointCheck the pre-cool set point on the controller, see page 41. The pump will not run if the
outside air temperature is below 40°F (4.4°C). Note: Pre-Cooler Mode will be initiated only when outside air temperatures are above the set point.
No Water Supply
Ensure water is being supplied to the make up valve (green valve on the left).
If there is a faulty make up valve, contact your local BAC Representative for a replacement.
To check for a faulty sump float, manually raise and lower the float to ensure functionality.
Faulty Pump
Ensure the pump is receiving 120V by checking terminals 2&3 at the bottom left corner of the control panel. For the pump to be energized, the sump needs to be filled with water and
the unit must be in Pre-Cooler Mode.
To check for a faulty drain valve, ensure the valve closes completely when unit is in Pre-Cooler Mode.
Clogged Pump Strainer Clean the pump strainer quarterly.
Spray System FaultEnsure that the pump's isolation valve (TSDC only) is on the open (vertical) position. See
Figure 24 on page 31.
Check for kinks or damage to the internal hoses.

TRILLIUMSERIES™ ADIABATIC PRODUCT
Appendix: EcoFlex™ ControlsaThe BAC TrilliumSeries™ Adiabatic Product controller is the brains of the unit and manages all the peripherals. At lower ambients, the TrilliumSeries™ Adiabatic Product will act like an air cooled condenser or cooler with variable speeds. At higher ambients, the TrilliumSeries™ Adiabatic Product goes into Pre-Cooler Mode which opens the supply valve, fills the sump until the liquid level sensor is satisfied, then turns on the pump to disperse water over the Pre-Cooler Pads. The water will continue to recycle as part of the internal daily drain and cleansing circulation schedules or in the case of the Water Saver option, until the water quality conductivity sensor initiates a dump.
The fans are controlled via an external 0-10V, 10-0V, 4-20mA, BacNet, or Modbus signal from the refrigeration BMS system (based off a condenser discharge pressure setpoint) or via an internal PID loop driven by a pressure sensor of the condenser pressure. Below are details showing the menu structure of the controller and how to navigate it.

TRILLIUMSERIES™ ADIABATIC CONDENSER
Appendix: Danfoss and Emerson CPC Rack Controllers bThe settings shown below for Danfoss and Emerson CPC are recommended starting settings based on BAC’s experience with TrilliumSeries™ Products in the field. However, all sites are different and may require additional tuning. Please contact BAC for additional assistance if required.
Danfoss
Step 1. From the Main Menu select Configuration. Step 2. From Configuration select Refrigeration.
Step 3. From Rack Configuration select Rack. Step 4. From Configure Rack select Condensers.
WWW.BALTIMOREAIRCOIL .COM
56
Step 5. Program as: Air cooled, Single Fan, Sat Cond Temp, Ambient Temp, Ramp Stages, set Min cond T
per customer spec or rack design, set Max cond T per customer spec or rack design, and set the Condenser
Delta T per wet bulb design TD.
Step 6. PG DN and set Minimum speed 1.0%, set Maximum speed 100.0%.
Step 7. PG DN and set Individual outside temp to Yes. Step 8. PG DN set the Normal Reaction Zone 60.0psi. This will give the normal PID the max range to
operate. Set Plus Zone and Minus Zone 60 sec – 120 sec to slow the out of normal zone reaction time.
Step 9. Go back to Configuration menu select Board & Points
Step 10. Select Sensor Inputs, program the Bd-Pt and Type for the Dropleg Press, Dropleg Temp, and
the individual Outside Temp. The individual Outside (Example below Outside Temp A is the individual)
should be a sensor that is located between the Adiabatic pad and the condenser coil. This sensor will give you the coil entering air. This entering air
temp will make it so the TD strategy will work with dry air or if the adiabatic water is running.
WWW.BALTIMOREAIRCOIL .COM
57
Step 11. Go back to the Main Menu and select Refrigeration.
Step 12. Select the Rack.
Step 13. Select Condenser. Step 14. Select Settings, starter setting: Linear Factor 2.0, Sensitivity 4.0. If saturated condensing temp
swings more than plus or minus a few degrees F then increase Sensitivity to reduce swing.

Step 1. From the general tab setting, select the above options.
NOTE: If you are using a blend gas
like R-407A in this example you
may want to find a gas that follows
the correct curve for the bubble.
CPC’s conversion does not do Dew &
Bubble it just splits the difference.
So for the SAT conversion your
conversion will always be off by half
the glide. For R-407A R-404A has
about the same bubble curve.
Step 2. Here are the setpoint tab settings. The two setpoints you will need to check are in bold. The TEMP DIF STPT will depend on your condenser’s TD design. For the TrilliumSeries™ Adiabatic Condenser, it will most
likely be 15°F – 20°F. The TR Temperature 10 should be good but may need a little adjustment.
